The best way to keep the price down is to allow for competition in the healthcare field. I don't really see the correlation to antitrust laws.
anti trust is the easiest example to show where gov't intervention can be a necessary check on capitalism to preserve the integrity of the system as a whole.
And we are veering really far off the original course and I think its probably run its course.
I personally feel that the current system is not maximizing our return on investment at the national scale - something like 18% of GDP in healthcare costs I think - and I'd like to improve that.
You disagree and that is fine.

I asked you to tell me which other countries have the equipment and the means to provide services like MRIs and CAT scans with a shorter waiting period than the U.S.

We both want a better ROI, we just disagree on how to get there. You want more government control to lower prices and I want less government control to lower prices, as a simplified form of this discussion. The innovation and great rates of disease survival are present not because the US is inherently smarter than the rest of the world, it's because of the lack of regulation we've had until Obamacare.
